The Drew Barrymore Show Suspension: Impact, Reactions, and Industry Rules Explained

2023-09-17 20:48:22

“I have listened to everyone and am making the decision to suspend the premiere of the series until the strike is over,” Ms. Barrymore posted on Instagram on Sunday. I have no words to express my sincerest apologies to everyone I have hurt and, of course, our incredible team who work on the show and have made it what it is today. , she added.

Ms. Barrymore’s initial decision to return to the air on Monday was criticized on social media. His show resumed tapings in New York last week and was the subject of a picket line by striking writers.

Filming of other shows has resumed. “The View” is back for its 27th season on ABC, while “Tamron Hall” and “Live With Kelly and Ryan” — neither are governed by the writers’ guild rules — have also produced new episodes. “The Jennifer Hudson Show” is set to resume Monday.

But “The Talk” canceled its reboot, also scheduled for Monday.

As long as the hosts and guests are not discussing or promoting works covered by television, film or streaming contracts, they are not technically striking. Indeed, talk shows are covered by a contract separate from the one that the actors and writers enter into. This contract, called the Network Code, also covers reality TV, sports, morning news shows, soap operas and game shows.

Ms. Barrymore’s stance prompted the National Book Awards to no longer invite her as host of its gala in November. The organization rescinded its invitation in light of the announcement that “The Drew Barrymore Show” would resume production.
